That 'lollapalooza only had 200 cases!' thing is leading a bunch of people I know to take really stupid risks they shouldn't be taking. One guy I know pointed to this as why having to wear a mask while vaccinated is pointless.

2nd week of September will be incredibly bad

My dining hall opens at exactly that point. Masks required everywhere indoors on campus except the place I work. Hundreds of students from all around the world, many of whom are going to be homeless because the school admitted way more new kids than housing exists for, coughing and sneezing and sucking and loving right in my vicinity.

biden is worse than trump because if trump were prez the libs would at least still be wearing masks out of spite

One fun thing about the may-june complete flattening of cases is even if team blue tries to argue all deaths from 1/20/21 to memorial day are Trump's fault , there's just no way to say that about anything after the mask mandate lifted

I really thought it would take 4 years for Biden to pass Trump's death count but I've consistently been wrong over and over so who the hell knows. 1k death days already have surprised me

Edit my guess was 100k dead each fall-spring due to 100m unvaccinated , all getting it, but their ifr being .1 not 1% since so many olds were vaccinated. This prediction seems way too low right now

“Our experience last year was that quarantines were almost a reflexive response to any report [of COVID], verified or second hand, suspected or confirmed,” Hilts told Chalkbeat. “We sent thousands of students into quarantine who never got sick and in some cases they missed weeks of instruction.”
They didn't get sick because they were quarantined !!!!

Dr. Schofield, if you have a SEVEN GODDAMN PERCENT breakthrough rate, wouldn't the prudent thing to do be, I don't know, stopping in-person school OR AT LEAST HAVING UNIFORM RULES COUNTY WIDE ABOUT PPE
just criminally stupid ignorance at this rate, its not 2020, we've been through this once before already guys

This might be a dumb question and the answer is probably “just buy more” (or get a respirator which I did do), but is there any reason I couldn’t use one of those UV disinfection boxes for phones on a used K94 mask?

I think you totally could and it would probably help you keep using for a bit longer than without.

it's pointless theater. the mask's lifespan is limited by material failure and soiling. you shouldn't really need to worry about covid particles stuck in the mask, and UV isn't going to remove the dirt, sweat, and oils making the face contact points gross.

Also, most of the UV boxes are just blue LEDs, not UVC lamps. Real UVC would also cause degradation of the mask material, but I doubt that would matter much for something that's getting tossed in 30-40 hours anyways.

Just spend the money on more masks or a respirator. We're not back to the early 2020 emergency with masks being in limited supplies, yet.

The War Has Changed
My office has been sending secret email to people who were in the office when someone had a breakthrough case. The office manager also neglected to mention the other breakthrough cases from last week.



When people started talking to each other about it people everyone realized that there were more cases that hadn't been disclosed to the company



So, they did a little PR in the #General_Office Slack channel. It went over well because I work with Brunch Libs. The chat links to articles on how to troubleshoot your body for Covid, essentially.



And, in classic corp fashion, the guy who raises a good point gets ignored.

a bunch of state boards of education mandated no remote learning option, even in true blue illinois. illinois did allow for kids to remote learn if they're quarantined but gave no details - apparently theyre supposed to just watch via webcam as the teacher teaches normally

every drat parent is going insane right now worrying about nonstop closures and the uncertainty behind it. second straight year where absolutely no conrete plan is in place

i assume the plan for all the southern antimask schools is to give every kid covid, close for a week, and reopen and just say its like if chickenpox hit the whole school at once

As someone who works in enterprise IT, I can say the best way to manage a serious problem is to make sure we deploy different rules and policies and preparation to every location the problem exists and also let individuals apply or not apply those practices based on their own judgement.
